I would like to ask Trump one simple question...
"Mr. Trump, if faced with the decision of doing what the public wants even though you believe it's wrong, would you abide by their wishes or would you do what YOU feel is best?"
If he answers "yes, I'd do as the public wishes"... then you know he's lying and can't be trusted. If he answers "no, I'd do what I feel is best"... then you know he's telling the truth and can't be trusted.

What is the value in asking a question where both answers are wrong to you? Regardless of what anyone says in that situation the end result is going to be the same to you.
Maybe you'd prefer a political non-answer?

My question reveals the absurdity of considering an individual to represent YOU that you know will not represent YOU.

Is the President supposed to represent anyone? Your Senators and Congresspersons, sure, they are elected to represent the people of their constituencies (sorry if that' the wrong word) or states. The President on the other hand, I wouldn't describe that role as being representative. So what you're looking for is someone who will make the right decisions when they arrive. There are plenty of decisions that a powerful person has to make that I would hope the average Joe would be incapable of making.
Essentially you want someone who agrees with you but is somewhat more sociopathic than you.

The president is most certainly a representative of the american people. As are all members of congress whether they belong to the senate or the house of representatives. While he may occupy the executive branch, which is more designed to be the liaison to the rest of the world, he is still representing those who put him in that office. This is why the candidates are asked questions regarding their policies and plans so that we, THE PEOPLE, can select who represents US the most. If this was not the case, the president would be appointed without our vote.

How can one be trusted when he is a liar, that he promised everybody that things gonna Change and Hope
once he got elected as the president of the unite state and didn't do as he said, if I recall for every action Bush does, he did the other way and continues to blame bush, after 4 years he can't blame Bush any more, so from what had indicated to me he had fails everything's that he touching now he is arm dealer with China, Great, why don't we gave everything's to china, laser cannon,
scram jet, stealth techno, invisible Nano technology.

When did obama blame bush? He never looked back but tried to improve as much as possible. The US eco is booming at the moment. Europe is economically still in 2009 and now the one horse who was pulling the waggon has a broken leg (as discussed in another thread).

If you guys somehow manage to elect Trump, I will produce a three chapter epic fanfiction involving Putin, Trump, and Caitlyn Jenner having an orgy in multiple places such as Trump's gold coin pool and Putin's private bear husbandry farm.
First bribe - first serve for the fetishes I include. Donations in Peso's only, please.
